This polyoxymethylene is formulated explicitly for material extrusion in 3D printing. POM combines low friction with high dimensional stability and is the standard material for moving precision parts – though it is considered demanding to print.
Rated 1 to 5 relative to the other materials in our range. This is an experience-based orientation aid, not a measured value – the hard numbers are in the table below.
| Property | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Material class | Polyoxymethylene (POM) | grade designation |
| Grade type | formulated for material extrusion / 3D printing | manufacturer datasheet |
| Density (ISO 1183) | 1.41 g/cm³ | manufacturer datasheet |
| Tensile strength | from datasheet – pending | — |
| Tensile modulus | from datasheet – pending | — |
| Heat deflection temperature | from datasheet – pending | — |
These values are taken from the manufacturer datasheet and apply to the material, not to the printed part. In 3D printing the achievable properties depend on part orientation, layer height and process parameters – in the Z direction in particular they are lower. Please talk to us before relying on them for design.
“Qualified for functional parts” is a general classification. A functional part can be a simple clip or a main load-bearing member – the forces and load cases differ fundamentally. We therefore always assess in each individual case whether a material is suitable for your part.
